Morristown Ophthalmology Associates, PA First NJ iLASIK Center Offering Next Generation of Personalized LASIK Treatment iDESIGN Refractive Studio 2.0


  • Measures the eye inside and out to enable highly precise personalized vision correction
  • Only available LASIK platform indicated for monovision LASIK in presbyopic myopic patients
  • 25 times more precise than the traditional way of measuring refractive errors

Morristown, NJ (October 12, 2018) Morristown Ophthalmology Associates, PA is the first and only New Jersey iLASIK Center to offer iDESIGN Refractive Studio 2.0, the first FDA approved treatment for monovision – a procedure designed for patients over 40 years old who are experiencing blurry near vision due to aging of their eyes.

Designed by Johnson & Johnson, it’s also the only system to use topography-integrated, wavefront-guided technology, with a proprietary INSIDE+OUT approach, taking precise measurements of the eye inside and out. It’s approved for myopia, hyperopia and mixed astigmatism.

“We are proud to be the first LASIK Center in New Jersey offering iDESIGN Refractive Studio 2.0 to our patients,” said Jeffrey Reisman, MD. “This new technology is truly revolutionizing how we measure and treat refractive errors and our patients are experiencing better quality outcomes with LASIK procedures using wavefront-guided technology.”

In a single, three-second scan, the new iDESIGN Refractive Studio 2.0 provides surgeons with the ability to deliver one-of-a-kind custom laser vision correction for each patient. Each treatment plan begins with a wavefront analysis to measure how light travels inside the eye, detailing the imperfections in a patient’s vision. The corneal topography scans the outside surface of the eye, measuring and analyzing tiny variations in curvature and elevation. The combination of the two measurements delivers a custom LASIK procedure tailored for each eye.

Morristown Ophthalmology Associates First in Morris County To Offer CATALYS® Precision Laser System for Cataract Surgery

CATALYS® Press Release

Millions of people around the world live with cataracts, a common condition in which the eye’s lens becomes progressively cloudy, making vision fuzzy or filmy and normal daily living activities more difficult. Poor vision caused by cataracts cannot be corrected with glasses or contacts, but it can be treated with surgery to remove and replace the cataract. In fact, cataract surgery is one of the most widely performed procedures worldwide, estimated at 19 million cases each year.

For decades, cataract surgeons have used handheld instruments to perform some of the most challenging parts of the procedure. Today, Dr. Jeffrey Reisman is performing these steps with an FDA market cleared, laser system called CATALYS®. CATALYS® combines a femtosecond laser, 3D imaging, sophisticated software and a number of other innovative features that make the cataract procedure highly customized, gentle and significantly more precise than manual surgery. The imaging and laser portion of the treatment takes only a few minutes and causes little or no discomfort to patients. Morristown Ophthalmology Associates is first in the Morristown area to offer this unique technology.

“Patients can benefit from a truly innovative solution, that allows for unprecedented customization in cataract surgery,” said  Dr. Reisman. “When you choose to have your surgery performed with this CATALYS®, OptiMedica laser, you’ll enjoy a progressive cataract procedure which offers exquisite accuracy and precision previously not possible with manual techniques.”

Every eye has a distinct size and shape. CATALYS® & advanced 3D imaging technology customizes the cataract procedure by building a 3D map of each eye. Dr. Reisman then automatically tailors the individual patient’s treatment plan to that map.

Next, they use CATALYS® to create a circular opening in the capsule that holds the cataract. The goal in this step is to create an opening that is as circular as possible and sized to fit the replacement lens. Clinical studies have shown that CATALYS® creates these circular openings approximately 10 times more accurately than those created by hand.

The circular opening then allows the surgeon to access and remove the cataract. In the traditional manual procedure, a mechanical instrument and ultrasound energy are used during this step to break up and take out the lens. With CATALYS®, the laser softens the cataract and breaks it into tiny pieces. The new softening technique allows for more gentle removal by nearly or completely eliminating the ultrasound energy required. This low-energy approach reduces inflammation, with faster recovery expected.

Depending on the patient’s pre-operative vision and desired visual result, Dr. Reisman may recommend a tailored treatment plan with CATALYS® that could include creating ultra-precise laser incisions in the cornea and a specific lens type, such as a multi-focal lens for near and far vision. This customized treatment, in most cases, will further reduce the need for contact lenses and glasses after surgery.

“The CATALYS® laser offers more precise, gentle cataract procedure with a generally more rapid, visual recovery. It also gives us an opportunity for more tailored treatments for patients,” said Dr. Reisman.

The CATALYS® Precision Laser System was developed by global ophthalmic company OptiMedica Corp. (Sunnyvale, Calif.) in close collaboration with a Medical Advisory Board of cataract surgery experts from around the World.
